THE AWAKENING
A LEOPARD SERIES NOVELLA

In The Awakening, a beautiful naturalist's dream comes true--to live among the feral jungle creatures. But an untamed, irresistible beast of another sort inspires her to explore her own wild side. . .


The Awakening has been released in several books over the years — alone, or combined with other stories:

Christine: I was asked to participate in this anthology with several other writers to give readers a variety of stories and it is quite a collection! Sabrina Jefferies has worked her magic on a wonderful historical. Emma Holly has provided a paranormal.

Christine's Notes


Christine Feehan
This was my first try at doing a shapeshifter story. It was a short story and I wanted to test myself to see if I could get the traits across between the person and the animal. I wanted to know that I could describe people becoming cats in a way that seemed real.
